Golnaz Alibeigi is our newest addition to the Channel 9 team. She is a recent gradute from the University of California Irvine. Her role for Channel 9 will be site manager and content creator. Contact her at golnazal@microsoft for any website related issues, concerns, requests, comments or anything! She is your new best friend.

Welcome to the C9 team! Hope you find yourself right at home between al these computer science people!

About feedback I would say: It's getting harder and harder to find/explore content on C9. A very nice way to do this would be if Channel 9 had an OData feed anyone could consume. If you ask Ducan I'm sure he knows about it, would love to know what he thinks.

Again, welcome and rock on!

Maddus MattusMaddus on C9, Is often ​controversi​al, But fun ​none-the-​less -​evildictait​or

Welcome to Channel 9. I'm really glad that Microsoft continues to attract new generation of people to Channel 9, at least showing that one of my favorite online video channels will continue to be available for a while. I totally agree that the way we create contents, get information, communication or even our lifestyles have changed continuously due to the evolution and revolution of science and technology. A common issue being raised is that does the convenience brought by technology somehow make us less willing to try hard? In Physics and Mathematics, we ALWAYS talk about ideal situations and theories, knowing that real-world situations will never be IDEAL. But as our society progresses, fundamental natural sciences are still something UNFAMILIAR to most people, leaving those who are genuinely interested in STEM ALWAYS super minority. To me, technology is more-or-less a double-edge sword. To those who want to be more productive, or to physicists, mathematicians, or any scientists, technology enables them to explore the areas which are simply impossible without technology. Those people simply get smarter and more productive because of the "more efficient" use of energy due to the help of technologies. On the other end, there are A LOT MORE people who ONLY read what on the surface, or as people say, "Judge the book by the cover". Technology makes them even lazier and more simple-minded, taking everything more for granted. At the end of the day, ALL of the inventions created are ONLY tools. It's up to the people who decide the outcome.

@B3NT: Fair enough (though I didn't "take" Turbo Pascal is college - I just used it to solve (well, construct solution space in dazzling colors) complex math problems). Yep, I'm old... With Naz, the C9 team is now more age balanced!

@Carl: uhm, really? must you troll that crap here? I see nothing offensive or racially-charged about Hamid_Fathi's comments. He merely said, 'you go, girl!' from one Iranian to another. End of story.

If I were foreign-born, I too would be proud of a fellow member of my country who was doing well and probably would have expressed it the same way! People who live in glass houses should not be so quick to throw stones, my friend.

@G-naz: I know I've been pretty silent here, but I would like to say, I wish you all the success in the world with keeping up Channel 9. C9's videos are engaging and highly informative.

Though, one thing I can say that I'd most enjoy is more Behind the Code and Going Deep with more people from the Windows team.

@zzco Dude, wth, since when is it trolling to express ones opinion ?If that is the case then you are trolling too, it is your opinion he is trolling.He's just frustrated. Could you not deduce that from the message ?Have you not ever been really frustrated before ?

What do you mean by "doing well" she just started. She have not done anything yet.

Being proud is not the same thing as expressing ones favoritism for a nationality. That can actually be a form of racism. Did you not study nazism in school when doing history about world war 1 and 2 ? That is one good example and there are plenty more.

@okii: I'm more than happy to discuss more in-depth this privately. In retrospect, I probably came off a little more harshly than I intended to sound, but I was frustrated at the time, and it unintentionally came out here.

Welcome. I know this is late but I was inquiring about this a while ago so I hope you can consider bringing this series back to what it once was.. http://channel9.msdn.com/Forums/Feedback/Bring-back-the-Show-Us-Your-Home-series. I enjoyed seeing how the Microsoft staff was implementing Microsoft products in their homes but before it's death, the program seemed to have completely spiraled away from it's original format.
